The Liberty Austin Reviews
Awesome chill neighborhood spot on a main strip. Great hang with a large patio
Typical Austin parking issues. No free parking. But you should take he gamble if your just going in for one drink and leaving right after your drink.
I haven’t been back here in years, yet, I felt so welcome and back at home. Mitch, and Quinn are all-stars, and I can’t say enough about how warm their welcome was. But it’s what I have always expected from The Liberty ever since it opened. I make it a point to revisit the art and KC’s grandfathers leather jacket from WWII. It’s been a long time, but because of Mitch & Quinn, despite my never meeting them before today, I felt back home. I cannot thank you enough. But it won’t stop me from trying. :) ♥️
July 2025: The liberty is a wonderful little East Austin gem. With a relatively small indoor space, and a really awesome back patio, you can get a dive style environment without the dirty dive Vibe. Drink prices are on par for Austin, they do have some deals, but mostly regular pricing. Happy hour looks like it's pretty decent. They also have a food truck out back, I really liked Eastside King that used to be there, but I'm not sure what's there now.
If you’re in search of a place that feels more like a second living room or back yard than a bar, The Liberty is your spot. Nestled on a side street with a flickering sign, The Liberty doesn’t try to dress itself up—and thank god for that. This is a dive bar in the purest sense: gritty, honest, and full of stories. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by dim lighting, illuminated bar, and a crew of regulars that seem like they’ve been holding down the same barstools for years. Walk through the pool tables towards the back door and find plenty of outdoor seating. The bathrooms are what you’d expect from a dive bar Drinks are ridiculously affordable. Whether you’re ordering a domestic, a whiskey neat, or the mysterious “house special” shot, you’ll leave buzzed without breaking the bank. The bartenders are sharp, salty, and surprisingly attentive. They don’t do frills, but they pour heavy and laugh loud.
The bar and staff were good, but the FOOD TRUCK! My god the Pepper Beef Pie was the best thing I've eaten on my visit to Austin so far. Highly recommend!
Best food in Austin!!!! Locals watched our beloved Paul win Top Chef, and supported him even when angry feminists tried to cancel him...but his food was just too good! (They still came back to eat it lol.) Go behind the Liberty Bar. Park between the alley on 7th. Always a spot there if you look. Try everything on his menu. You can't go wrong. ❤️
Went for dinner around 11 pm on a Tuesday. The food truck is open until 1 am. I did have to go through the bar to get to the food truck (Eastside King). I ordered the Chicken Sandwhich which was very good and flavorful. Also got the Pork Belly Meshi which was also a solid choice. Recommend going here if you aren't trying to break the bank and looking for something tasty and filling.
Wow 😲 I’ve been to this place a number of times and just now discovered the outdoor back patio! They have a great beer 🍺 and shot 🍸 special for 6 bucks! I should note that there is a bartender with a beard and toothpick that just isn’t a nice person. I still give it 5 for many other reasons ... but what a bad person to have work at a great place!
